How long a wait in "Product Return Pending" status?

I finally sent back my MBP 2.0 week 15 for service (whine, heat, etc.). The repair seems to have gone quickly, as per Apple's support page, but it is now stuck in "Product Return Pending" status for the last three days. Those of you that sent it in for repair, how long did you waited in the "Product Return Pending" status? Is it possible it has not been updated but it is on its way?

I sent it straight to Apple, not through the stores. I just hung up with AppleCare and, well, they were not able to explain why if it was already set as if the repair was completed, it was still "open". The explanation they gave me is that they were re-checking the unit, and could not confirm a shipping date. hmmmm. They did tell me the logic board and inverter (which was not mentioned in the original call) were replaced (three days ago).
I don't mind if Apple re-checks my unit and holds it a little bit longer. That's fine with me. As long as it comes back ok... but, I would appreciate some information as to when I should be in to receive it.
Thanks all for your quick responses...

    I don't like this approach... because I can change amount of attempts  and period. My BPM will be stopped but message could be delivered later... It will be diffucult to support dedline period in all business process

  • Anyone know how long to wait for packaging following a repair request?

    I've got a repair request pending - on the 9th - but so far nothing else has happened. Am I waiting for some packaging from Apple? if so, anyonee got an idea how long i need to wait, as two business days now gone. Email from apple below....
    We have received your request for a replacement IPOD TOUCH. Your Repair ID is XXXXXXXXXXXXX.
    Our initial diagnosis indicates that because your product replacement will likely be covered by the warranty, an AppleCare Protection Plan, or another Apple repair program, there should be no charge to you. If we have questions or concerns regarding the repair coverage, we will notify you.
    Within two business days, you should receive the return instructions for the original and shipping materials for you to use. Please don't use any other package, because if the original is damaged in shipping as a result of improper packaging, it will not be eligible for service and will be returned to you unrepaired. Do not include any other items, such as headphones, as they will not be returned to you.

    sounds like you are awaiting some sort of packaging which you can put your old ipod in so you can return it to apple.
    since it's been two business days, might be worth emailing them to let them know.

  • Publishing Book on iBook Store - How Long To Wait?

    Does any good soul know how long it usually takes to a book to get published on iBook Store after it gets delivered via iTunes Producer App? I uploaded a title about 5 days back and I see that the status of my book is 'Pending'. I am quite curious if somebody has a good experience about the waiting time in his/her case. And this will be really helpful to estimate or have a speculation about nearby searchable status of the book on iBook Store after the date the book got delivered via iTunes Producer. Reply is highly appreciated.

    For me its always been 5 working days.
    Also make sure On the Rights and Pricing page that the Sales Start Date for the country in question is in the past and Cleared for Sale shows Yes.

  • How long to wait before watching movie download on apple tv?

    Just purchased a tv season, then tried to play the pilot episode. It stopped 2 minuted in... Just froze. Eventually it returned To the apple scrolling pictures.
    So I then proceeded back to the episode, pressed start at the beginning (instead of resuming) worked great... Until about 5 minutes in. Freeze Again!
    So... How long should I need to wait to start playing the video so that it WON'T freeze?

    If it isn't in the Rentals category in the Movie menu, check the purchases history in your iTunes account and see if it's there. If it isn't, you might try one more time and see if it works.
    If not, you might want to contact iTunes store support. I had a problem a few months ago with my purchases not completing because of database corruption in the iTunes store that was affecting my account.

  • Ordering iWork '08 online -- how long is wait for serial #?

    Hi -- I've had the demo of iWork '08 installed over 30 days, so today I went and purchased a serial number online. I was careful to get the serial number, not the boxed option.
    I was emailed a order acknowledgment, but there was not a serial number inside the email, and I can't find one online.
    So I'm wondering how long the serial number email usually takes (assuming that the serial number wasn't supposed to be in the email I already received, which does not have one)? Did people who bought this way have to wait very long?
    it's been over an hour, and I'm waiting to dig in to some work.
    Just to be sure, though -- I have checked Spam filters, and my order acknowledgment came through just fine, so my address is good.
    Thanks for any advice or help!

    Thanks Phil --
    I still haven't received anything, but I talked to Apple Support. They confirmed that the code should have been in the original email, but they are "having trouble with that system" and that the code would arrive in a separate email.
    The woman I talked to tried to look up my activation code, but couldn't access it. She said to call back in 24 hours if it doesn't show up. It's been 22 hours since I bought it, so I'll be curious to see if a call back in 2 hours really does anything different.
    On the flip side, they're order processing did take my money, so one of their systems is working just fine. It's frustrating that a one-person shareware developer can get me immediate serial numbers, but Apple can't.
    If anybody else is reading this, I recommend leaving a few days before your demo expires if you're going to buy a license!

  • How long for upgrade reset after returning a phone to Amazon

    I returned a phone purchased at Amazon.com last week and I am wondering how long I should expect it to take for my upgrade to reset. I would like to purchase a phone soon.
    Thanks

    You may need to contact the Amazon site/seller.  If you bought it from them and returned the phone to them then they would have better answers even if they were just the point of sale and Verizon handles the contracts and plans.  Typically you have to work with whichever method you chose to buy with.

  • How long a wait is it for tv show availability on iTunes?

    I bought a seasons pass on iTunes, and episodes that aired days ago on tv still aren't on iTunes. How long does it usually take for an episode to get onto iTunes?

    It really depends on the provider, in this case the tv network that uploads the episodes.
    No one can really tell.

  • How long do you have to return a product with a physical defect?

    Hey guy i bought my Macbook pro on September 29th and noticed it had a slight defect on the back side of the screen. On the bottom right side on the laptop there is a very little pressure/Stress mark that you can see if you look at it the right way and also the screen when closed does no fit flush with the back of the laptop one side is flush were as the other side pertrudes a little bit. And one last thing is the when closing the laptop the right side of the screen hits on first before the left side. I am wondering when i should bring this back to my apple store for them to check it out. Whould it be to long if i waited after the 20th to see if the keynote contains new macs? Im hoping if i bring it in after that i may be able to get a free upgrade.

    It's probably too late now. As a store manager I would find it difficult to believe that a computer that is 2+ weeks old is just now being looked at. If there were visual defects they would have been apparent immediately which is when you should have returned the machine.
    Good luck.

  • When doing a full battery discharge, how long to wait before recharge?

    I use my 17" MBP as a desktop computer. Never need to travel anywhere with it, and never need to use it on battery. But I know that to maintain the health of the battery, it needs to be used. So I'd like to know the following:
    1. Apple tech support informed me that when I fully discharge the battery, I should keep it in that fully discharged state for six hours before recharging it. This is quite inconvenient, as it requires careful planning to ensure one won't need the computer for six hours when the battery runs out. Which causes me to do full discharges less frequently than perhaps I should. Does one really need to wait six hours to get the benefit of the discharge? Or can one plug the power adapter in immediately when the discharge is complete, so as to be able to keep using the computer?
    2. Some Apple staff say one should ALWAYS use the computer on battery. And only use the power adapter as a battery charger-- i.e. don't use the power adapter routinely to power the computer. Only plug in the adapter when you need to charge the battery. Is this true?

    Thanks to both of you.
    @eww: Yes, there was another question in my mind which both you as well as the thread you referenced, address: the need to use the battery frequently but lightly. This is a new concept for me, and I did not get guided at all in this direction by the tech support staff at apple. So reading the info you've given and referenced, it sounds like the best usage is frequent, partial use of battery. And recharging each time, before it is fully discharged. With full discharge and recalibration only once every 2-3 months.
    Two different tech support people at Apple told me that whenever I do use the battery, I should use it all the way down. Do not do partial usage. And it was one of the tech support staff in the Apple Store in Annapolis MD, who told me that I should ALWAYS use the battery. There was no misunderstanding; I spoke to him for about regarding related points on battery usage. And if you ask the tech support staff how often calibration should be done, you'll get different answers every time. One told me every week, another told me every month, another said he wasn't certain what the best schedule was.
    If you still have access to free tech support, do an experiment-- call the tech support line 4 or 5 times, and ask the same question each time: optimal strategies for battery maintenance, for someone using a MBP as a desktop. I did this 5-6 times in attempt to find out the best approach, and got different answers every time. And NONE of the staff gave type or detail of information which was provided in the reference you gave.
    So thank you very much for your help. You have made the matter really clear!

  • I updated to Firefox 4 and ever since it won't open. It says the process is running but no matter how long I wait it won't open the browser and restarting or ending the process and trying again doesn't work either. Is there any way to fix this?

    I thought it might be a compatibility issue with Windows Vista but the same problem happened on a computer with Windows 7. I'm not sure if the Windows 7 problem was resolved, though.

    You probably have other problems but for a start right click on your task bar and click on Start Task Manager. In "Applications" if Firefox is shown, click on "End Task". In "Processes" if Firefox.exe is shown, click on "End Process" and ignore the warning and click"End Process" again. Wait for a few seconds then start Firefox in the usual way. There is a chance that this may solve your problems.
    If not, you probably will need to do a complete uninstall and re-install. If you can't start Firefox you could try starting in Safe Mode - Hold down Shift key as you double click on the Firefox icon>ignore the page that opens>and Continue. If you've been able to open Firefox you could work through this Troubleshooting Procedure -
    https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting%20extensions%20and%20themes
    If at any stage you are not making progress, report back here for best advice on an Uninstall/Re-install which is quite likely to be necessary.

  • Online plan differs from plan the store stated I received, how long to wait?

    I just upgraded from a Galaxy Nexus to the Droid Maxx at our local store in Redlands, CA, I did not want to change my current voice plan and unlimited data.  They assured me would just add another line at 9.99/month and everything else would not change with the benefit of getting the upgrade discounted price.
    However once home the online the plan indeed had changed and the cost has increased ($39.00 after employee discount up to $66.77/month after discounts, original for each was $50 and $79.97 respectively) and the shared minutes from 500 to 700.  In addition to the 9.99/month for the additional line.
    I called back the store and the rep assured me she'd already spoken to verizon customer service while I was there as she noted the difference and they already adjusted everything so that the charges for the plan wouldn't change, only the additional cost of 9.99 for the new line with the added benefit of additional minutes for no additional fees.  She rechecked and stated that my online account at verizonwireless.com wasn't displaying the correct information and that my old pricing and employee discounts was still intact, only difference now was the 700 shared minutes.
    How can I be sure this is indeed the case when my account information at verizonwireless.com itself isn't displaying the correct information?

        We want you to enjoy your awesome new device without needing to worry about what to expect on your bill, batman99. I have sent you a follow request here in the forum. If you haven't already spoken with Customer Service to confirm your plan, please access https://community.verizonwireless.com/actions to accept my request and follow me back so you can send me a private message with your name and mobile number to we can put your mind at ease and take a closer look.

  • How long is the wait for uptodate program?

    I bought a macbook pro on 23rd July which is after Lion release, and it still shipped with Snow Leopard. Applied to the "uptodate" program on 24th, and it is now 1st of august! Nine days and waiting, and no response at all. What am I suppose to do?

    I'm just wondering if there's a way to find out how long a wait to expect between each new episode of a show you've bought a season pass to?
    Sorry but no, there isn't. The iTunes Store normally posts episodes as soon as they get the episodes from the producers (barring a technical problem with the video that would require the iTunes Store to request a new copy).
    Since the show is screened weekly in my country, I can't see the reason for the 2 week+ wait. Any ideas?
    Probably delays or problems at the production house.
    If not, I can't seem to find a questions/complaints email address for iTunes Australia, can you point me in the right direction?
    http://www.apple.com/au/support/itunes/contact.html
    Though there's probably nothing they can tell you, but it won't hurt to contact them as ask what's going on.
